Pretty simple, my 97 is worth barely 3,500 according to most insurers, but market value is 6k for a matching vehicle, that's if you can even find air con. + $3k of work. I'm looking to insure for around $10k, but most insurers won't even dream about it.

So who are you guys with?

Shannon, just car, DGA?

^^ agreed. I wish I could full comp my 98 jimny, but it's only worth $3400 "apparently". So third party fire and theft it is.

1,635 for ac as a optional extra, which makes it a accessory.
Private price varies from $2,800 - $4,400 to $3,400 - $5,000
if you argued it was worth 5 k plus the accessories including ac you could stretch it to 10 k.

bottom line is in 3-4 years of paying for insurance you would have a new car, and most insurers won't cover you for off road damage anyway

Try Club 4x4 (1800 258 249) or www.club4x4.com.au

My 1999 GV SQ625, previously insured with RACV for agreed value of $3350 (market value was $2600 according to them!!) cost $492.72 - after their various 'years of membership, multi policy discount' BS was applied.

Club 4x4 let me have agreed value of $4650 on the vehicle, plus $10000 of accessories & modifications = total insured value is $14650.
listed as 'business use' which added a little bit, but the 12 month premium is $611.02 - more than happy with that.

No, I don't work for them & I've only had this policy since Dec. last year & not made a claim, so not sure how it will all go, if I did.
